bar to kilopascal
Please provide values below to convert bar to kilopascal [kPa], or change ↔.
bar
Definition: A metric unit of pressure, equal to 100,000 pascals or 100 kilopascals.
Historyandorigin: The bar was introduced as a convenient way to measure pressure in the early 20th century, particularly in meteorology.
CurrentUse: Widely used in meteorology, oceanography, and in the measurement of pressure in natural gas pipelines.
funfact: The bar is close to atmospheric pressure at sea level, but it is not an SI unit!
kilopascal [kPa]
Definition: A derived unit of pressure, equal to one thousand pascals (1 kPa = 1000 Pa).
Historyandorigin: The kilopascal is commonly used for everyday pressure measurements, especially in meteorology and engineering.
CurrentUse: Used for measuring atmospheric pressure, tire pressure, and other common pressure-related applications.
funfact: A standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is approximately 101.325 kPa!

How to Convert bar to kilopascal
1 bar = 0.01 kilopascal [kPa]
1 kilopascal [kPa] = 100 bar
we use cross multiplication method
bar → kilopascal [kPa]
1 → 0.01
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.01=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.015
